Well worth the visit for any sports fan, the tour of the MCG was fantastic and as all of the venues are close by each other travelling time is kept to a minimum. The info from the tour guide was very informative.

Thought the tour around the MCG was excellant and Flemmington was great too.We were abit bit disappointed that we only had lunch at Edihad stadium and then the tour finished. We extended the tour and went to the sports museum which was interesting.

A great tour for sports lovers. All the sporting venues we went to were just amazing. Our tour guide was the best ever. I did this tour with my 86 year old dad, we are from Perth WA. He came to pick us up at the accomadation where we were staying and made the whole tour easy fro my dad. I will reccommend this tour to all my freinds!!

Our tour guide was a great host and made a point of making every one feel welcome. The tour operators were great, and the morning was capped off by a nice lunch at a cafe next to Etihad stadium.

Myself and my two sons had only arrived in Melbourne the day before doing this tour and what a fantastic introduction it was to Melbourne! To be honest, I really booked the tour for my sons' sake but I found it interesting, amusing and very very well done. Thank you especially to our wonderful guide who treated everyone on our tour with the utmust courtesy and consideration. I will be recommending this tour to my family and friends.

Both my son & I enjoyed the trip. As we are both cricket fans, would have liked to stay at the MCG a little longer. Viator are very accommodating, guide was great, very informative. A morning well spent.

I, being a sports mad fan, loved the tour. The tour guide was very informal and gave useful information about many different sports. My girlfriend enjoyed the tour because driving on the bus gave her the opportunity to see many of Melbourne's sites that otherwise we could not have. To finish the trip lunch at the Telstra Dome was delicious with a beautiful view, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It was great how at the end of the tour our driver offered to drop us anywhere around the CBD. Overall it was a terrific experience.

Tour guide was the best, really matched the trip to our likings and knew when to have a bit of a laugh. Perfect mix of professionalism and fun in a tour!!!!

Review by: Suzanne W, Australia	July 2008
Saw a whole range of facilities. Only thing that was a little disappointing was the time spent at the Sporting Museum. We could have stayed longer, but, did not realize we would need the time.
